This book was released on 2016 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a significant lack of research in the area of interventions for adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Literature within this scope of research suggests that researchers should conduct interventions to teach community living skills, leisure skills and adaptive skills to promote better quality of life for individuals with ASD. This study examined the effectiveness of a video modeling intervention on the acquisition of leisure skills in adolescents with ASD. A non-concurrent multiple-probe across participants design (Horner & Baer, 1978) was used to represent and evaluate the effectiveness of the video modeling intervention. Two of the participants demonstrated success in mastering the leisure skill that they had selected to learn. The third participant, did not demonstrate mastery of the leisure skill, but demonstrated an overall improvement in the accuracy of steps completed in the leisure skill. All of the participants showed improvement across four generalization probes that took place in novel settings throughout the intervention phase of the study.

Book excerpt: The current study examined the effectiveness of a video modeling procedure on a basicmath skill acquisition in students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) using a multipleprobe across students design. Participants were four kindergarten/first grade students in aself-contained classroom in an urban public school. All met the criteria for ASD prior tobeginning the study. The independent variable included a video model teaching a basicmath skill. The dependent variable was correct student response. Results indicated thatone of the four students responded to the intervention immediately and these skillsmaintained over time. However, the other three students did not respond to videomodeling instruction. Conclusions regarding the effectiveness of the video modelingprocedure for teaching math skills were inconclusive. Implications for further researchare addressed.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Educators are in need of appropriate interventions for teaching individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A widely used (Bellini & Akullian, 2007; Delano, 2007) and evidence-based (Horner et al., 2005) instructional intervention for individuals with ASD is video modeling. Video modeling involves the learner viewing a video demonstration of a targeted behavior and subsequently performing what was viewed. A variation of video modeling is video prompting in which the learner views a video demonstration that is a single task analysis step or chunk of a targeted behavior followed by practice of that step/chunk. Video prompting has successfully been used to teach a number of behaviors to individuals with developmental disabilities including self-help skills (Norman, Collins, & Schuster, 2001), daily living skills (Cannella-Malone et al., 2006), and cooking related tasks (Graves, Collins, Schuster, & Kleinert, 2005; Sigafoos et al., 2005). When selecting appropriate gross motor activities to teach individuals with ASD, physical educators must consider their developmental delays and deficits in movement behaviors (Pan, Tsai, & Chu, 2009). Dance is a common activity offered in physical education programs (NASPE, 2005). By performing appropriate dances, individuals with ASD may be able to benefit both physically (e.g., enhanced coordination and balance) and socially (e.g., enhanced inclusive recreation and leisure activities). Dance has positively impacted children and adolescents with disabilities as evidenced by increased participation and cooperation (Crain, Eisenhart, & McLaughlin, 1984). However, additional research is needed to investigate instructional dance interventions for children and adolescents with ASD. The current study employed a multiple probe across participants design to evaluate the effects of video prompting as an intervention for dance instruction. Seven participants with high-functioning ASD participated in the study. Six males (ages 12 to 16) and one female (age 15) received Cupid Shuffle dance training in a one-on-one instructional format. The researcher showed one video vignette (clip) at a time on a MacBook Pro® laptop computer. After viewing a vignette, participants were given the opportunity to reproduce the modeled steps. The researcher provided positive reinforcement, such as praise and/or a high-five for correctly performed steps. To correct errors, a 4-level least-to-most prompting system was implemented. Maintenance, generalization, and social validity were assessed. Results showed that six participants acquired the Cupid Shuffle from the video prompting intervention. Moreover, three participants demonstrated 100% maintenance and one participant demonstrated 99.1% maintenance at 1-week post-intervention. One participant demonstrated 100% maintenance at 8-days post-intervention. Participants achieved overall generalization probes percentages of 44-68%. In terms of generalizing the newly learned dance to a new situation by dancing alongside the trainer to music, four participants achieved overall generalization percentages of 89-100%. When generalizing the newly learned dance to the new situation of dancing alongside peers to music, three participants achieved overall generalization percentages of 97-100%. Furthermore, parents and participants who completed social validity questions reported that the goals, procedures, and outcomes were acceptable and important.

Download or read book Teaching Conversation to Children with Autism written by Lynn E. McClannahan and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripting is a teaching method designed to help children and adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), who are nonverbal or who are verbal but dont initiate conversation, to initiate conversation. The authors draw on years of experience using scripts in their own clinic, and include many case studies that show how scripts have worked. The book defines scripts as an audiotape or written word, phrase, or sentence that enables young people with autism to use speech to start and continue conversations. At first a child is taught to play the recording of a word for an adult, and then get a reaction from the adult. (e.g., if he plays the script juice, the adult will give him a sip of juice or if he plays the script ball, the adult will play ball with him). Later on, the child is taught to play the script and then say the word himself (and get the reward from the adult). As the child becomes better at talking, scripts are lengthened to become phrases --want juice or play ball --- and then sentences. And once the child can read, scripts are written instead of recorded. As the child masters sets of scripts, the adult begins to diminish (fade) the prompts. If the script was recorded, words are gradually deleted from the recording. (e.g., if the script started out saying, Where is mom? they will re-record it so it just says Where is and then Where ---? At this point, the child should fill in the blanks.

This book was released on 2014-04-18 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research on children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is extensive and growing. Although these conditions are recognized as affecting the entire lifespan, the literature on ASD after childhood is limited and has not been brought together in a single volume in over a decade. Adolescents and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders fills this knowledge gap by focusing on needs and difficulties unique to these stages of development. Expert contributors offer cogent reviews of complex issues, from education to employment, leisure activities to illegal behaviors, mental health issues to medical health concerns. The latest findings in key areas, such as psychosocial and residential treatments, social skills programs, epidemiology, the impact of ASD on families, are examined in detail. Throughout the volume, coverage focuses on areas requiring improved models of assessment, updated data, new interventions and increased support services. Featured topics include: Transition from high school to adulthood for adolescents and young adults with ASD. Innovative programming to support college students with ASD. Romantic relationships, sexuality and ASD. Treatment of mental health comorbidities. Assessment and treatment planning in adults with ASD. The range of outcomes and challenges in middle and later life. Adolescents and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders is a must-have reference for a wide range of clinicians and practitioners – as well as researchers and graduate students – in clinical child, school and developmental psychology; child and adolescent psychiatry; social work; rehabilitation medicine/therapy; education and general practice/family medicine. It will also serve as an important resource for parents and caregivers with its focus on translating the current state of knowledge relevant to understanding adolescents and adults with ASD into practical and relevant recommendations on how best to support them.

Download or read book The Effects of Video Self modeling on Functional Life Skills in Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder written by Nicole L. Casillas and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Single-subject research design assessed the effects of the video self-modeling (VSM) teaching method on functional life skills for three high school students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in a home setting. VSM is a teaching method in which an individual views a video clip, watching herself/himself engaging in a task (behavior). This is meant to build familiarity with the task, enhancing the individual's ability to perform it independently. By applying this method to functional life skills, which are necessary for high school students with ASD, it may be possible to help them build the skills necessary to live independently. The current study utilized a non-concurrent multiple baseline across behaviors research design, which was implemented to answer the research questions: (1) What are the effects of VSM on functional life skills for high school students with ASD in a home setting? (2) Once acquired, are functional life skills maintained over a period of time? (3) Does VSM provoke self-efficacy beliefs in high school students with ASD? The study was guided by self-efficacy theory. Self-efficacy refers to a person's self-belief that she/he is capable of completing a task. With this in mind, it is hypothesized that by using VSM as a teaching method, participants will learn functional life skills, maintain these skills over time, and report higher levels of self-efficacy beliefs post-intervention. Visual analyses were utilized to analyze and interpret study results. Visual analyses consisted of analyzing any changes in variability, level, and trend of each phase by implementing a line graph. Reliability was assessed through Inter-observer Agreement (IOA). Procedural integrity was verified for procedures implemented in phases of the study. Results from visual analyses from the study suggest VSM is an effective teaching method for adolescents with ASD in a home setting. Additionally, all participants maintained their acquired functional life skills post one week, and post two weeks following the end of VSM phase. Descriptive statistics was applied to evaluate pre and post assessment of self-efficacy beliefs for participants. Specifically, the total, mean total, and median are reported. The study found that VSM is effective for helping high school students with ASD develop and maintain functional life skills. Results revealed no significant changes occurred between pre and post assessment of self-efficacy beliefs for all participants. Participants and their mothers reported overall positive perceptions of social validity. Implications for practice and theory are discussed, as well as directions for future research.

Jenssen and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a growing emphasis on autism-related services, many young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) continue to struggle with social skills deficits. Thus, these individuals are severely underemployed and unprepared to function in vocational settings. One instructional method that has been used to teach social skills is video modeling, though research has focused primarily on applications with young children. First-person point-of-view (FPPOV) video models are videos that show a skill or task being performed from the same perspective as the learner would see it occur when completing it. Past research on FPPOV video modeling is limited, and most of the available research has demonstrated changes in behavior only when FPPOV video models are implemented with additional instruction or intervention. The current study extended the video modeling literature and examined the effectiveness of FPPOV video modeling as a stand-alone instructional tool for job-related social skills, and the generalization of these skills to employment settings for individuals ages 18 to 26 with developmental disabilities. Results suggest that FPPOV video models alone were not effective for teaching job-related social skills until embedded in the Behavioral Skills Training (BST) package or after the addition of enhanced video features.

Download or read book Comparing the Efficacy of Video Modeling to in Vivo Modeling for Teaching Vocational Skills to Adolescents Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder written by Amanda L. Day and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of video modeling to the effects of in vivo modeling for teaching new vocational skills to teenagers with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Error corrective procedures, a video clip presentation of the step correctly modeled or an in vivo model of the step, were used in each condition. Four teenagers diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder were taught two types of vocational skills and within each skill were taught two variations of the skill, for a total of four different vocational tasks. Each participant learned one variation of a vocational skill through video modeling and the other variation through in vivo modeling. The study demonstrated that learning occurred in both conditions, video modeling and in vivo modeling, and both conditions resulted in mastery of all four skills for three out of four participants, and the mastery of three out of four skills for one participant.
